The problem it solves

Writing catchy titles, descriptions, and thumbnails for every video takes real creative time you don't always have. Without strong SEO, good videos get buried and never found. You want a consistent way to prep every upload for search and clicks.

Who it fits

Best for content creators or media teams who publish video regularly and want consistent SEO.

How it works

  1. A new video is added to a Google Drive folder
  2. The audio is transcribed into text automatically
  3. AI analyzes the transcript and writes a title, description, and tags
  4. AI generates a matching thumbnail image
  5. The finished assets are ready for upload
What you get

Titles and thumbnails ready to approve

Every new video gets a transcript, SEO title, description, and thumbnail prepared for you, ready to review and publish.

What you get

A transcript, an SEO-optimized title and description, tags, and a custom thumbnail for the video.

What you need

A Google Drive account, a Google Gemini API key, and a LemonFox API key.

We can build this. But should you?

The hard question is not how to build it. It is whether this is the right thing to build first.

That is what a Fractional Chief AI Officer figures out with you, before anyone writes a line of code.
